The 'Windcatcher' principle, of encapsulating any prevailing wind, originated some 2,000 years ago in the Middle East, where wind towers were often a common sight. The modern Monodraught Windcatcher is an extension of this principle but is also a development of the highly successful Monodraught Vertical Balanced-Flue system invented in 1965.The Monodraught Windcatcher system has proved to be the most effective method of providing natural ventilation to any commercial building, by encapsulating the prevailing wind from any direction. Clean, fresh air, relatively free from contamination or traffic pollution, is entrained at roof level and is carried down to the rooms below through a controlled damper arrangement.
